    Scale 25% Krier Kraft build, a tribute to grampa.

    Way cool. Are your wing tip bows just sheet balsa laminated? Curious how you formed them and what they are made of. I've heard of guys soaking balsa sheet in windex (ammonia) prior to forming. Whoops found this! EDIT: Tip bow was laminated out of 5 layers of 1/2 x 1/16 balsa and glued up with...

    VVRC 40cc Twin

    Just saw that the VVRC 40cc Twin V2 is arriving Dec 1st. I guess the changes are that the MFGR is different for the crank shaft and cylinders, shortened the prop hub to accommodate more war bird models, spark plugs now are angled down, lightened up the components as well. Good Mods, curious to...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Finished installing my new elevator control horns I fabricated from 0.060" FR4 epoxy/glass laminate phenolic sheet I ordered from ePlastics - they are based out of Cali. This is a little thicker than the 1.5mm size sheet a lot of control horns are made of, but fit pretty well. This is a much...

    3D MOJO 65 w/20cc Build

    Kinda a bummer that SwannyHouse has shut down... I was hoping to do this exact build. I have a Mojo40 kit in a box to replace my worn out 40... but now that I'm phasing out my nitro to gas the 60 would have been the next machine. What a joy to build these models are!

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    This is what I have! I should build a removable shelf on top of the bed so I can stack better. But with a 6.5'bed and a super cab f150, equipped with a mid rise sport snugtop canopy... it works well for me. Kinda wish I had the true four door, but that usually sacrifices bed length, or just...

    Woah

    @GSNadmin Noticed the sidebar for recent forum posts moved from the homepage? Could we move this back and maybe even make it larger/longer? Also could be nice to highlight some threads from the membership in addition to MAN and product updates? One more thought I've been having is that there...
